What's more hilarious than the zoo being flooded and all the keepers dying, are the reactions one quasi-edgy descriptor has produced.
You'd think Facepunch was filled with nothing but people who think it's their moral duty to get pissed off over word choice on a small forum's news feed.
[QUOTE=fruxodaily;47954334]So a zoo floods, tons of people are dead, animals are roaming around the city and it's hilarious?[/QUOTE]
I lived in Tbilisi for a few years and this is exactly the sort of thing I would expect Georgians to consider funny.
When your people have been invaded, subjugated, and nearly exterminated for hundreds of years, your sense of humor tends towards pitch-black.

Damn, sometimes you don't realize how big some of these animals are. 3 - 4 meter crocodile/alligator looks a lot bigger next to a car like this.
Bro, All the trainers dying as well as most of the animals is absolutely hysterical!!! No but really, OP is a dick.

The incident, in hindsight, is hilarious - Georgia has a tropical climate and is prone to a fuckload of rains, the fact that this fact was overlooked is funny and the situation after is funny.
The tragedy of people and animals dying is not.
How hard it is for you to understand?
My dad got a chuckle when he read about it, I myself don't really care. Both Georgians, yes.[/QUOTE]
A town in a rainy area is destroyed, killing its inhabitants, because the dam is overloaded and breaks. They should have been prepared! Hilarious!
What the hell is wrong with you, man?
If you seriously thought this was funny then you're one fucked up person.

Holy shit, thats fucked up. I hope our government gives at least a little bit attention from Olympics to the floods in Georgia and send some help.

Yeah human death and tragedy is A-OK to laugh at when it happens to you. What?
What the fuck is wrong with you OP.

I think I just shit my pants
There's nothing funny about this. If you think this is hilarious, seek professional help. I might be for dark humor but this is messed up shit OP, put yourself in the shoes of those directly affected by the tragedy as a consequence - d'you think that the families of the dead zookeepers will think it was funny or something?
There's a time and place for even black humor. This isnt it.
What the fuck, OP, what is wrong with you?

Wow, are you seriously surprised people are disgusted when another human being says something horrific was funny.

I've heard apathy is common in Eastern Europe (and by extension the Caucasus). Maybe this is it? :v:

They all come back eventually.
Also, no, not really. If you're joking about a morbid event, you don't consider said morbid event funny, you base a joke on it and that's what makes it funny.

That might explain a lot about me, then.
I hope, you guys understand that I tried to delete that "hilarious" from title. I did not really mean it. The reason I put that on the title was to stress it , while the true meaning was quiet opposite . You guys.
Here's an update:
There are about 6 lions, up to 10 zebras, 7 wolves, and other animals dead. Two dozens are still roaming freely
Unfortunately, about 12 people of whom 3 were zoo caretakers, have died as well.
Volunteers from all over the city are working on this. This is very sad because only tragedy can unite people.
actually that is pretty hilarious, i laughed
what was also funny is that you spelled it as "[B]hill[/B]arious" which i find the bigger tragedy

I'm sorry, one may miss a latter on the keyboard
Jesus christ, you guys really shat on the OP didn't you? It was a failed attempt at sarcasm and you really went overboard.
Must be down to poor translation, surely?
There's lions and tigers roaming the streets. This is like an extreme hunting game.
OP are you sure you weren't looking for the word "Horrible" or "Heinous" there?
[QUOTE=Buck.;47955891]OP are you sure you weren't looking for the word "Horrible" or "Heinous" there?[/QUOTE]
I know English better than most on this forum, and yeah, it was a horribly failed sarcastic attempt. However it doesn't explain the fact that I missed "L"
[QUOTE=The golden;47955994]Guys we're 2 pages into the thread now. I'm pretty sure we've berated the OP for his poor choice of words enough already, jesus. He knows he fucked up, there isn't anything he can do about it now. Move the hell on.[/QUOTE]
Jesus, these guys are like a blind horde
There's more discussion in this thread about the OP saying "hilarious" than there is about the actual incident
Like Christ, he knows he fucked up, that was established in the first 2 posts, get over it and stop cashing in on easy moral points
Back on topic anyway, I can't imagine how incredibly terrifying it would be to just be living there right now. Like what do you even do, you can't really go anywhere
